The Smart Manufacturing Data Hub (SMDH) supports small and medium-sized manufacturers to become more competitive by harnessing the power of data. Digital solutions, expert guidance and data insight projects are available to companies through the hub, allowing them to explore and evaluate their processes, make operational savings, de-risk investments and become more digital savvy. From monitoring equipment, processes and conditions, manufacturing SMEs can benefit from identifying energy usage; save money by monitoring utilisation and performance; protect processes from foreseeable and costly damage; better understand their carbon footprint; increase sustainability; ensure optimal environmental conditions; anticipate future product demands; investigate root cause of delays in production; allow more efficient management of resources and assets; and improve visibility and traceability of jobs on the shopfloor.
